The official presentation of Londonist DMC’s 2025 King’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade has been covered by BYTV (British Yaşam TV), a UK-based news platform serving the Turkish-speaking community in Britain. 

The article reports that Londonist DMC was one of only 116 businesses across the UK to receive the award this year. The award was formally presented at a ceremony in Holborn, central London, by Ms Roxane Zand, Representative Deputy Lieutenant of Camden. COO Umang Gandecha, the senior leadership team, staff and invited guests attended the ceremony. 

In her speech, Ms Zand described the award as a reflection of the team’s collective effort as well as the company’s success in international trade. She noted that only 17 companies in Greater London were recognised this year, and praised Londonist’s contribution to education. 

In his remarks, Founder & CEO Asım Ertürk said that receiving the UK’s highest business honour is a source of great pride. He recalled that the company began in 2013 with just 30 rooms and now operates more than 2,000 student rooms across 35+ central locations. He described the award as recognition of the team’s dedication, as well as the company’s growth, vision and values.
